Xiao Chengxu's face turned pale. He was so overwhelmed by Xie Yaoqing's sharp words that he was speechless and could only remain silent.
However, Xie Yaoqing still showed a slight interest in what Xiao Chengxu had just said.
If Doctor Zhu is really not Xiao Chengxu's man? If he is not following Xiao Chengxu's orders, then is he really the Queen Mother's man?
With this question, Xie Yaoqing asked Xiao Chengxu. After getting the answer, Xie Yaoqing felt that if it was true, it could only be said that old ginger is still spicy.
Although the Queen Mother always appears to be amiable and peaceful, as if she is a generous elder, she is actually a dagger in her heart. She looks kind and gentle on the surface, but she is insidious, cunning, cruel and ruthless in her heart. People like this are the most insidious and terrifying.
Xie Yaoqing glanced at Xiao Chengxu out of the corner of her eye, her words full of complaints, "Even so, if I hadn't married the emperor, how could I have been hostile and schemed against by the empress dowager?"
This statement is indeed the truth. The reason why Xie Yaoqing became the target of the Queen Mother's calculations and targeting was entirely because she married into the royal family and became Xiao Chengxu's wife. If she had not married Xiao Chengxu, or married someone else in the royal family, perhaps she would not have aroused such strong fear from the Queen Mother.
In the final analysis, all the troubles originated from the imperial edict of marriage. Xiao Chengxu asked for it himself, and the late emperor decided the marriage. The emperor's marriage was a great favor. Xie Yaoqing could only be grateful and thank him profusely. She didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction in public, for fear that it would reach the ears of the late emperor, arouse the emperor's anger, and affect the family.
"Your Majesty is forcing me to get into this mess. Could it be that I owed you something in my past life?"
Xie Yaoqing asked quietly.
Xiao Chengxu's whole body trembled violently, and he closed his eyes, forcibly suppressing the waves of pain that surged in his heart.
Perhaps, he was really wrong? He shouldn't have been greedy and wanted to be happy and live with his beloved forever.
Looking back to the past, when he was still a young child, he suffered a lot of bullying in the huge palace. At that time, he couldn't even protect a small bird. He could only watch the third prince and his men laughing and sneering as they cruelly plucked the bird's feathers one by one in front of him, and then smashed it to death after torturing it.
Later, he thought he had finally made it and gained the love and respect of his father, and was no longer the down-and-out prince who was trampled on by others.
That's why he wanted to fight for the person he loved, but he didn't expect...
If you like someone, you should naturally hold on to him/her tightly, and do whatever it takes to get him/her and keep him/her by your side.
But the tighter you hold on, the faster you lose, and in the end, nothing is left.
But if time could go back and start over again, Xiao Chengxu would still decisively take the same despicable means as before, and might even make it worse.
Even if the engagement between the Yongchang Marquisate and the Gu family was not cancelled due to an accident, Xiao Chengxu would do everything possible to annul the engagement.
Xiao Chengxu had indeed had similar thoughts before. When he learned that the Yongchang Marquisate and the Gu family had an engagement, and when he knew that the girl he had been thinking about day and night had actually been betrothed to someone else, all kinds of evil thoughts began to stir in his heart.
The reason why it was not put into practice in the end was because the Gu family encountered an accident first, and Xiao Chengxu didn't need to do anything extra, so the marriage contract between the two families was cancelled.
Even today, Xiao Chengxu knew that Xie Yaoqing's heart was no longer with him, and she didn't even want to stay in the palace, and only wanted to leave, but he chose to turn a blind eye and pretend to be deaf and dumb. Whether it was a divorce or a divorce, he was determined not to give Xie Yaoqing a happy ending, and didn't let her get what she wanted. He just wanted to tie her tightly to his side.
As long as she was still around, he would try his best to make up for his past mistakes.
Letting go is absolutely impossible.
Xiao Chengxu was very clear about this. Unless he died, he would never let go. What was the point of parting ways and living happily ever after? Xiao Chengxu knew that he was not that magnanimous. His mind was very narrow.
Xiao Chengxu offered himself to Xie Yaoqing, but was rejected. Xie Yaoqing looked down on him and refused to listen to his kind words. In anger, Xie Yaoqing called people and prepared to drive Xiao Chengxu out.
However, facing the king of a country, neither the palace maids, eunuchs, nor the guards dared to actually take action.
Seeing that everyone below was cowering, Xie Yaoqing became more and more annoyed. He had no choice but to go into battle himself, using all his strength to push Xiao Chengxu out of Kunning Palace step by step.
Perhaps because he was too weak, Xiao Chengxu was exhausted and was really pushed by Xie Yaoqing. Under normal circumstances, this would not have happened, because Xie Yaoqing's strength was far inferior to his.
Xiao Chengxu had just been pushed out of the gate of Kunning Palace when the next moment, the gate slammed shut.
Despite this, Xiao Chengxu still stubbornly refused to leave.
Xie Yaoqing didn't let him in, so he stood quietly at the door, not moving.
It's not a solution to continue to be in a stalemate like this, especially since Xiao Chengxu is still injured. Standing for a long time is not good for his physical condition.
Feng An was extremely worried and tried to persuade him earnestly, "Your Majesty, you should go back first. It is important to take care of your health..."
He talked until his throat was dry, but Xiao Chengxu turned a deaf ear to him and stood firmly in front of the gate of Kunning Palace, like a door god, and remained unmoved.
